Kayla and Mike have been taking my dog, Cross, on hikes and boarding him for about the past 4-years…read moresince he was a puppy. Among many other things, they've been an integral part of his development and socialization over the years. Most importantly, these dogs go on legit adventures daily! Professional, flexible and cool people. I highly recommend their services.

Kayla is the BEST! We've been using her services for the past 4ish years and are so happy we found…read moreher! She is very communicative, responsible and competent. I fully trust her with our high-maintenance boy and that's saying a lot coming from a serious helicopter dog owner! :) She will love your dog like they are her own and it is obvious how much she loves all her pack. She is flexible and adaptable - our lives can be chaotic so we cancel/add services at the last minute and she is very accommodating to our needs. She goes out of her way to say hello to our foster dogs to help with their socialization - whats not to love? Mike is great as well, every time my dog sees him he lets out excited happy barks and I know he loves our talkative dog and his silly antics. We have tried out other dog hiking services in the CV/Hayward area in the past and none compare to Kaylas Pet Services! Look no further if you need someone to look after your furry loved one!

I used Keelie and her team to walk my dog (daily) for 2 months. I was recovering from surgery…read more They were so professional, responsive and had excellent communication. They took great care of Sandi. She got so excited when she heard her dog walker coming to the door that she started jumping with excitement. A couple things they do to take extra care include: 1) Keelie (owner) personally introduces me to every person who will walk Sandi. 2) They use special leashes with AirTags. Their team members are licensed and bonded to. I highly recommend Keelie and her team.

Daily updates and pictures are such a great feature as we could be completely at peace while we were away. Lots and lots of kudos and thanks to Keelie, Lisa & team.

My dogs loved it and it so eased my conscious as my work schedule at the time was very long hours. I have also used them on an "emergency basis" when I took sick and a Fetch team member came to my house and exercised a new puppy who needed a great deal of attention. They are wonderful!

Fantastic web app to manage the account. The sitter that has been assigned to me, Autum, is…read morefantastic. On the walk through before our first sitting, she understood right away what needed to be done. Every day she sends a report with photos. It really is so nice to see the pics of my kitties every day when I'm away. Autumn thus far has been available short notice which my previous sitter needed at lest 2-3 weeks advance notice. On top of that, she is cool with coming every other day which saves me a ton of money. I suspect I will be using Fetch! Pet Care's services for a long long time.

We boarded our 4-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Dior, at Uncle PawPaw for 5 nights -- his first…read moretime ever being boarded -- and Roy was absolutely amazing. From day one, Roy made us feel completely at ease. He sent daily photos and videos of Dior having the time of his life with his furry friends, which was huge for us since Dior never really got to socialize like that before. Seeing him so happy, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying himself made all the difference. Roy clearly loves what he does and treats the dogs like his own. We couldn't have asked for a better first boarding experience and will 100% be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place where their dog will be truly cared for.

I had a rare chance to travel and needed to board my Corgi/Australian Cattle Dog, Poppyseed. I was…read moreso nervous and scared to leave her alone with a stranger and it is the first time she's been boarded without her sister, who passed last March. But WOW!! Roy at PawPaw is truly amazing and the only person I trust. I came home to a beautiful, clean and better dog than when I left!! It's like she remembers her early training again-- she sits on command, is quiet on command (now HOW did you do that??!!) and is just perfect!! Holy cow!! Roy sends pictures and videos every day so you know that she is safe and happy. I loved seeing her "tucked in" at night with the other pups. I don't trust anyone else with my dog other than family and Roy. Thank you for taking such great care of my dog. I appreciate it more than you know.

Analyn did a wonderful job caring for our beloved cat Fion while we were gone for two whole weeks…read more We received lots of photos and updates and loved that Fion could walk around and hang out in different places rather than being in a kennel or "cat condo" for two whole weeks. Unfortunately, a cat sitter who drops by the house doesn't work for us because Fion ruins the house if she is left alone. So being able to leave Fion at Analyn's house works out very well for us. We highly recommend iThink Pet to other pet owners!

My husband and I were so fortunate to find iThink Pet in 2016 when searching for a new cat sitter…read moreon Yelp, after we moved to San Leandro. We had excellent cat sitters for several years (but were moving to a new location where they no longer could serve) so we were very anxious to find the "right fit". The search was over upon meeting Analyn Carino. She was kind, personable and passionate about her business. We also thought it was wonderful this was a family run business where her brother, Jason, would also be working with us. We have found Jason and Analyn's associates to be very attentive to our last minute cat sitting needs and requests. This is one of their greatest strengths, their excellent communication and responsiveness. Daily photos, and daily texts to keep us informed! Wow! When they arrive at our home to watch over Loke, our flame-point short hair Siamese and Mocha, our black medium hair tabby, they work extra hard to ensure we can have peace of mind while we are out of town. From these daily updates, summaries and taking photos of our fur babies to taking in our packages that arrive at our front step as well checking our mail, they are professional, dedicated and easy to work with. We appreciate their concern and gentle treatment of Loke and Mocha, as if they were their own pets, which is one of our top priorities in retaining pet sitting services. We highly recommend Analyn, Jason and the iThinkPets team. If you ever have a question, feel free to reach out to myself through Yelp as we would proudly provide a referral! We welcome questions and happily available to share our own personal positive stories and experiences after working with iThinkPet since 2016. They are wonderful and Loke and Mocha love them like family. Thanks so much Analyn and Jason! We iThinkPet!

We could tell he was overwhelmed and very stressed once we would pick him up. For the following 2-3 days he would sleep all the time to recover.

He acts normal and is no longer stressed. Knowing he is happy allows us to travel without stress.

Roya - the owner of Be My Barki - is a lovely woman whom I had met several times over the past…read moreyear at the Castro Valley Dog Park. During my dog's 4-day stay, I checked in with Roya who assured me that everything was going well. I only found out through a phone call from a concerned person at the dog park that my poodle had escaped from Roya's back yard and had run several blocks into a busy intersection. Thankfully a regular patron of the park happened to be walking his dogs in the area so he was able to call my dog over to the sidewalk where he grabbed her. Roya never called me or even mentioned this incident to me. I got the call about the escape a few hours before I was to pick my dog up from Roya's so I gave her the benefit of the doubt to discuss this with me when I arrived. When I asked her about Josie's stay, she said "everything was great". I asked if there were any problems. Roya paused and said that there was one problem in that a larger dog she was boarding had "attacked" (her word) a smaller dog. She said that my dog had become very shaky after this "attack" and wouldn't come from the corner of the dining room when she was called. I told her about the phone call and only then did Roya admit that my dog has escaped from a gap in her backyard fence soon after the incident with the other dogs. My 7lb poodle has no history of running away. It also concerns me that she did not conduct a temperament screening with Josie before accepting her for boarding. She also keeps dogs of all sizes in the same area. Note that she also made me pay for this visit and did not send home any of the toys I dropped off with my dog.

Thank you Margaret for the recent dog-sitting and walking!…read more Margaret did a great job stopping by our house twice per day to visit our dog Tinky. She took her for a walk, played with her, fed and gave her water while we were gone. She also made sure to bring in any newspapers or fliers that were left on our porch during the weekend. We felt very comfortable leaving for the weekend with Margaret's help! We will definitely use her services again and recommend to everyone we know!

Super grateful to have found Alex to board and care for my high energy labradoodle puppy, Marlo!…read more From the start, it was clear through initial interactions with Alex that he was well prepared and qualified. He answered all my questions and asked great questions in return. I could tell he understands how to care for animals with patience and joy. Marlo can be a handful with all his energy and need for attention, but Alex handled it like a pro - providing plenty of playtime, socialization and affection. It was especially comforting to receive regular updates and photos that gave me peace of mind while we were away. Marlo even made a new bestie, bonding with another doodle Alex was caring for. When we picked up Marlo, he was happy and healthy. We can tell he had a great week thanks to Alex!

He is definitely trustworthy and asked appropriate questions related to Django's needs prior to boarding. He shared updates and photos which I did not request in advance, but took it upon himself to help ease our minds while we were away on vacation! After the initial expected super excited reunion b/w Django and his humans, I could definitely tell Django was very happy and relaxed. I will continue to utilize the services offered with this business because I know my pet is in good hands. I would definitely recommend Alex because his love and attention to the animals under his care is obvious. Thank you Alex!
